Studio Touya is a handmade pottery studio located in Seagrove NC where Hitomi and Takuro Shibata set up studio and built Japanese style wood kiln. Our focus is to make simple& functional pottery by using local wild clay and wood firing technique. We named our pottery as "Touya" when we started our small pottery studio in Shigaraki, Japan, and it literary means "pottery house" in Japanese which we really like.

SMITH HOUSE GALLERIES

Ceramic art fired in a wood kiln shows in itself the story of the firing: the passage

of the flame and the traveling of the ash. The works in this exhibition reveal this

mysterious harmony of clay, fire, and wood. Featuring works by John Jessiman,

Randy Edmonson, Cricket Edmonson, Steven Glass, Robert Barnard, Takuro

Shibata, Hitomi Shibata, and Sukjin Choi.
